0 1 PDP 2017 - 2022 . By the end of 2022, more Filipinos will be closer to achieving the AmBisyon Natin 2040 of a “ matatag, maginhawa at panatag na buhay .” The Administration will lay down a solid foundation for more inclusive growth, high - trust and resilient economy, and a globally competitive knowledge economy. By the end of 2025, Philippine development is equitable, sustainable, free PPGD 1995 - 2025. from violence, respectful of human rights, supportive of self - dete rmination and the actualization of human potentials of both men and women, participatory and empowering. GEWE Plan 2019 - 2025. By the end of 2025, more women and girls, especially those from poor and marginalized groups, are empowered and enjoy the benefits of social, economic and human development; they are in high growth areas such as STI and ICT; have higher incomes; their resilience in the face of natural and human - induced disasters is stronger; gender - based discrimination, violence (GBV) an d gender inequality in all spheres of life are significantly reduced if not eliminated; gender and social norms support a cul ture that promotes gender equality, diversity, and ending violence against women. The GEWE Plan 2019 - 2025 identifies stra tegic and catalytic actions to achieve significant reduction if not elimination of gender inequality in all spheres of life, such that women and men equally participate in, contribute to and enjoy the benefits of inclusive growth, a high

- trust and resilien t society, and a globally competitive economy. I . Expanded Economic Opportunities for Women. More women, especially among marginalized groups, enjoy higher incomes from employment and entrepreneurship, including agribusiness; significant pro gress is achieved in reducing, recognizing, representing and redistributing unpaid care work; more women are benefiting from high - growth industry sectors such as ICT and STI; macro - economic, trade, and labor policies are more responsive to gender issues; women OFWs enjoy higher incomes and better protection. II. Accelerated Human Capital Development through Investing in Gender Equality and Women‟s Empowerment. Women and girls, especially those from marginalized groups, enjoy increased access to and be nefit from comprehensive health including sexual an d reproductive health services, and social protection; women - headed households have increased access to water, electricity and shelter; more girls and women are enrolled in sc ience, technology, engineering, agriculture and math courses and are better equipped for the high growth sectors of employment and business. III. Significant Reduction in Gender - Based Violence and Enhanced Gender Perspective in Justice, Security and Pe ace. Women, especially those from marginalized groups, have better access to justice including transitional justice; GBV is significantly reduced; victim - survivors are empowered to seek help; ro

ot cause, impact, and social cost of GBV is better understood and addressed across sectors; women are in leadership and have meaningful participation in all stages of peace and security processes, especially in conflict areas. IV. Expanded Opportunities for Women‟s Participation, Leadership and Benefit in Disaster Resilience and Humanitarian Action. Improved resilience of women, especially from poor and marginalized groups, to natural and human - induced risks and disasters; women‟s perspective, participation and leadership in DRRM, climate ch ange adaptation is enhanced. V. Expanded Opportunities for Women‟s Participation, Leadership, and Benefit from Science, Technology, Innovation, ICT, Infrastructure, and Energy. Women are highly qualified and engaged in the ICT sector; barriers preventing women from progressing in the ICT and STI sectors are addressed; planning and design of ICT and infrastructure ease the burden of women in the home, industries, work places and public spaces. VI. Enhanced Women‟s Participation, Leadership and Benefit in Politics and Government Service. Improved representation and voice of marginalized groups – PWD s , persons of diverse SOGIE, IPs , Muslims , elderly, children and youth – in governance systems and processes; increased representation of women in deci sion - making in the public service; data systems in support of gender sensitive and evidence - based reporting and decision - making are significantly improv

4 ed and routinely used for analysis and
ed and routinely used for analysis and decision - making. VII. Transformed Social Norms and Culture Promo te Gender Equality and Women‟s Empowerment. Significant progress is achieved in promoting a culture of gender equality and ending discrimination; schools, media, CSOs and the private sector support the promotion of a culture that is supportive of gender e quality, diversity, and ending GBV; improved understanding and action by men, including religious and community leaders, in cultural transformation for gender equality; data systems are institutionalized and inform gender studies for stronger knowledge - bas ed action and advocacy. 2 3 There is a growing understanding that addressing the constraints of women's economic empowerment is fundamental to achieving lasting, inclusive, and sustainabl e economic growth, poverty reduction, food security, and gender equality. Economic empowerment has been defined in many ways. In simple terms, economic empowerment combines two concepts: economic advancement and empowerment (or the ability to make decisio ns). Approaches that help women succeed and advance in the marketplace include increasing skills, either for employment or for business, and providing access to productive resources, improving the enabling and institutional environments, and assisting wome n to make and act upon decisions in order to benefit from economic growth and development. Economic development planners and implementers need to recognize, however, that economic empo

5 werment is intertwined with social and
werment is intertwined with social and political challenges. It is essen tial to take into account the underlying political, economic, social and cultural factors that limit women's ability to interact with and benefit from markets, such as unpaid and inequitably distributed domestic and care work, and the prevalence of sexual and gender - based violence. Simply targeting women as beneficiaries of economic programs and services will not address the issue completely and points to a holistic and integrated approach across sectors. Unfortunately, the way bureaucracies are set up mak es integrated and holistic approaches quite challenging. Gender inequality in the economy has many dimensions, involving inequality of opportunities (capacity to earn income) as well as outcomes. 1 These dimensions may be expressed in terms of: ● Employme nt opportunities – opportunities to participate in the labor market in all sectors (horizontal distribution of activities) and all occupations (vertical distribution of activities in a profession); ● Returns from labor (wage equality); ● Conditions of work and quality of employment (includes sustainability and regularity of employment), social protection (health, maternity, unemployment and pension), working time, intensity of work, occupational risks, possibility of career advancement or skill upgrading and social status attached to a job; ● Access to resources (such as land, credit and business services); ● Empowerment (p

6 articipation in decision - making); and
articipation in decision - making); and ● Distribution of income inside and outside the household. The discussion above plays out in varying degrees in all economic activities, be they in trade and industry, services, tourism, agriculture, fishery and forestry, or migration for work. The PDP identifies as a priority goal the reduction of poverty through jobs and entrepreneurship ( trabaho a t negosyo ). The 1 https://unctad.org/en/docs/edm20042_en.pdf (accessed 10 Oct 2018) 4 GEWE Plan highlights this Goal Area for women: expanded job opportunities in high - growth sectors; sustainable and competitive businesses for women; improved access to skills for employment and skills for entrepreneurship training; improve d protection by labor laws and standards. This Goal Area is composed of three chapters: Trade, Industry, Services; Agriculture, Fishery, and Forestry; and Labor and Employment. For this Goal Area, the GEWE Plan 2019 - 2025 aims to achieve the following out comes: More women, especially among marginalized groups, enjoy higher incomes from employment and entrepreneurship, including agribusiness; significant progress is achieved in reducing, recognizing, representing and redistributing unpaid care work; more w omen are benefiting from high - growth industry sectors such as ICT, STI; macro - economic trade and labor policies are more responsive to gender issues; women overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) enjoy

Create mechanisms to synchronize the data collection and analysis of OFW data, with particular attention given to women in vulnerable situations. 23 24 The development and deployment of human capital is a critical element of economic growth and social inclusion. Countries cannot have very high human capital if their gender gaps are large because women

make up half of the population. Thus, this strategic goal area highlights the special needs of marginalized social groups of women who are most likely being left behind by growth and development, particularly in the areas of education, health, and shelter. They have been specifically identified in the MCW and should be given special attention. Muslim and Indigenous Women . The rights o f Muslim and indigenous women and equality with men in all spheres of life are guaranteed and protected under existing law. To ensure that Muslim and IP women are not merely viewed as passive recipients and beneficiaries of government programs, they need t o be better represented and capacitated to engage in decision - making and governance processes. Their marginalization is greatly affected by the fact that they live in isolated areas where they continue to suffer from poverty and fare dismally in socio - econ omic indicators due to inaccessibility to health, education, and the provision of basic services. This problem is often caused by their failure to be registered at birth. 3 Birth registration is a fundamental right and a basis for the exercise of many oth er rights. By not being registered, 3 Women‟s EDGE Plan, 2013 - 2016. they become “legally invisible” and are not fully considered in government planning and programming, and are not able to fully access social programs, services and facilities. Women with Disabilities . Ac

25 cording to the 2010 Census of Populati
cording to the 2010 Census of Population and Housing, there are 1.4 million Filipino persons with disabilities, and half of them are women. The protection, promotion and fulfillment of the rights of persons with disabilities are guaranteed under RA 9442 or the Magna Car ta for Persons with Disability, while women with disabilities are further protected under the MCW. Monitoring of compliance with these policies still needs to be strengthened. PWDs are entitled to 20 percent discount for medicines, food, transportation, an d exempted from VAT, much like the senior citizens. Gender issues identified in the Women‟s EDGE Plan continue to be relevant. These include: a) lack of access to justice by women and girls with disabilities; b) lack of participation in decision - making in governance structures and processes; and, c) invisibility in mainstream government programs and services that will otherwise include them in growth and development. An emerging issue is their invisibility in the country‟s disaster risk reduction and manag ement phases from disaster prevention, response, to recovery, including humanitarian assistance. Elderly Women . The Philippines ranks moderately on the Global AgeWatch Index at 50 overall. It ranks highest in the 25 enabling environment domain, with above re gional average values for all indicators and one of the highest figures when it comes to the satisfaction of older people with civic freedom in the region. It also ranks highly in the capability domain. The

26 Philippines ranks low in income security
Philippines ranks low in income security due to low pension coverage (28%) and a higher than regional average old - age poverty rate (13.7%). It ranks lowest in health due to low life expectancy at 60 (17), compared with regional average (19.3). 4 Currently, the country is not prepared to meet the needs of the influx of aging Filipino men and women. National policies like the Expanded Senior Citizens Act (RA9994) must be reviewed to address the unique needs of women and men among the aging citizens. There is a dearth of data and research on aging in the Phi lippines, much more so on looking at different situations between men and women older persons. It is safe to assume though, that gender issues that women face in the workplace and in society in general, have manifestations during old age. For example, wo men need longer health care services given their relatively longer life span compared to men; they also have lower pensions given that on the average, women have shorter work life due to their care responsibilities. In recent years, the government has impl emented key programs that aim to enable the poorest segment of society to access basic education and health services. These programs include (a) the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program, which is a conditional cash transfer program, (b) the Kapit - Bisig Lab an 4 Global AgeWatch, Philippines, 2015, http://www.helpage.org/global - agewatch/population - ageing - data/country - agein

These programs aim to improve the lives of men and women and give them access to health, education, and livelih ood. Given the value and reach of these programs, the extent to which their outcomes have benefitted women and men and other marginalized groups would be extremely useful for improved targeting and lessons that could be applied by other development sectors .

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development has underscored the critical interface between climate change and disaster risk reduction, especially within the context of urban

58 settlements. Similarly, the Sendai Fram
settlements. Similarly, the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) 2015 – 2030 has adopted a disaster risk managemen t approach that aims to broadly strengthen resilience and adaptive capacity to climate - related hazards, emphasizing the need for dovetailing climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction efforts. The SDGs include 25 targets related to disaster risk reduction in 10 out of the 17 goals. Furthermore, even where disaster risk reduction language is not explicitly mentioned, numerous goals and targets can contribute to reducing disaster risk and building resilience, including targets related to promoting education, upgrading infrastructure in urban settlements and promoting health (UNISDR, 2015). Without the input of women, risk reduction and climate change adaptation strategies will not be designed for the entire community. Gender is an important dynamic in climatic and disaster risk reduction efforts. The reasons are essentially two - fold: (1) the agency of women is essential for tackling the perils of climate change and disaster risk; (2) despite significant strides that have been made in addressing gend er inequalities over the years, women are still among the most marginalized groups of society and are particularly vulnerable to current and future climate change and disaster risk. This requires the inclusion of women in programming, decision - making and p olicymaking for disaster and climatic risk. While women‟s vulnerability is almost always assumed, the

More recently, there has been a growing commitment from these sectors to contribute to gender equality. In the case of

65 technology and innovation, there has bee
technology and innovation, there has been a growing advocacy for science, technology, and innovation (STI), particular ly ICT, to play a pivotal role in achieving gender equality and women‟s empowerment. Advocates call attention to the strong possibility that when women and girls have equal access to and control of STI, the world may finally see the “disruptions that will result in the transformation for women‟s empowerment”. Advocates further assert that to fast - track the achievement of gender equality, countries need to expand the discussions from the decades - old issues of violence, discrimination and victimization to include potentially game changing interventions that could even be used to address the old persistent issues. The opportunities offered by technological advancement and innovation must be explored not only to expand opportunities for women‟s economic empow erment as workers and leaders, but also to maximize the use of new technology to advance gender equality. Along this line, the UN Women is supporting some promising and innovative programs focused on leveraging the power of ICTs. For example, they are r unning digital literacy and ICT skill development programs in countries like Jordan, Guatemala, and Afghanistan; supporting mobile payment and information systems for farmers and women in small business in Papua New Guinea and throughout Eastern Africa; an d, supporting the development of mobile apps and games to raise awareness on violence against women and to

UN Women has also launched a global technology award that recognizes outstanding contributions from w omen, and men, in leveraging the potential of information technology (IT) to promote gender equality. For this goal area, the GEWE Plan 2019 - 2025 aims to achieve the following outcomes: Women are highly qualified and engaged in the ICT sector; barriers p reventing women from progressing in the ICT, STI, and Energy sectors are addressed; planning and design of ICT and infrastructure ease the burden of women in the home, industries and workplac es and public spaces. 68 Overall Strategic Outcome: Women enjoy equal access to STI, particularly ICT, which enables them to advance their social, economic, political and cultur al life including their resilience; wome n are equitably represented in leadership and technical positions in the STI and ICT sectors; women have access to technology that helps ease their burden in the home, industries, workplaces and public spaces.

World leaders have made pronouncements about “the world wasting a precious resource in the dramatic underrepresentation of women in leadership positions, often resulting in the exclusion of women‟s talents and s

87 kills”. Over the last de cade, th
kills”. Over the last de cade, the rate of women‟s representation in national parliaments globally has incrementally increased from 15 percent in 2002 to 19.8 percent in 2012. This is still well below the 30 percent benchmark often identified as the necessary level of representati on to achieve a “critical mass”. The full and equitable participation of women in public life is essential to building and sustaining strong, vibrant democracies. Accordingly, the meaningful participation of women in national, local and community leaders hip roles has become an important focus of global development policy. The world is starting to see dramatic changes at the highest levels of leadership. For example, Sweden, Canada, and more recently, Ethiopia, are illustrating that a 50 - 50 equal represen tation of men and women in government cabinets is possible and laudable. Women‟s participation and representation in politics and government service have been shown to result in tangible gains for democracy, including greater responsiveness to citizen‟s needs, increased cooperation across party and ethnic lines, and more sustainable peace. 17 Women‟s participation in politics and government service helps advance gender equality and affects both the range of policy issues that get considered and the types of solutions that are proposed. Research indicates that whether a legislator is male or female has a distinct impact on their policy priorities, making it critical that women are present in

88 politics and government service to repr
politics and government service to represent the concerns of women and help improve the responsiveness of policy making and governance. 18 There is strong evidence that as more women are elected to office, there is also a corollary increase in policy making that emphasizes the priorities of families, children and ethnic mi norities. Women‟s engagement is crucial. However, it is important to recognize that women are not a homogeneous group. They have very different experiences that lead to different priorities and needs, depending on whether they are young or old, educated or uneducated, with or without disability, or live in rural or urban areas. Not every woman who gets elected will place women‟s issues or rights at the forefront of her agenda. 17 National Democratic Institute, 2015.

Wittmer (2010) “The Legislative Effectiveness of Women in Congress,” http://polisci.osu.edu/faculty/cvolden/VWWWomenLEP.pdf . 87 Women‟s representation is not the only factor, but it is a critical factor for the development of inclusive and responsive democracies. Filipino women remain sorely underrepresented in the highest positions in both elective and appointive positions in government, where most important decisions and priorities are made and directions are set. This pursuit of

greater female representation in the realm of governance is critical to sustain any development in gender equality in the Philippines. For this goal area, the GEWE Plan aims to achieve the following outcome: Improved representat ion and voice of marginalized groups – PWD, diverse SOGIE, IPs and Muslims, elderly, children and youth - in governance systems and processes; increased representation of women in decision - making in the public service; data systems in support of gender sen sitive and evidence - based reporting and decision - making are significantly improved and routinely used for analysis and decision - making. 88 Overall Strategic Outcome: Improved enabling environment fo r women to vote, campaign, hold political office and speak out on behalf of their constituents, supported by a changing culture that values women‟s participation and contribution to good governance through politics Gender Issue Statement Outcome/ Result S tatement Outcome/ Result Strategy Responsible Agency Indicator Baseline Target Women continue to be disproportionately represented in elected positions and in political parties and organizations Improved representation of women in politics Percentage of women in national and local elective positions Percentage of women candidates vis - a - vis share in national and local elective positions (BPfA Core GAD – Tier 1) Per

social group. While often unspoken, norms offer social standards for appropriate and inappropriate behavior that govern what is (and is not) acceptable in interactions among people (WHO, 2009). Discriminatory norms and practices lie at the roots of gender inequality; they give rise to gender biases, s tereotyping and other discriminatory practices. Gender norms or cultural standards related to expected behaviors for men and women, boys and girls, influence everyday life, social attitudes and cultural practices, and how women and men relate with one anot her. They also affect how policies and programs are implemented. Discriminatory gender norms need to be challenged and transformed to give way to a culture that upholds gender equality and women‟s empowerment. Under this goal area, the GEWE Plan 2019 - 2025 targets to achieve: Significant progress in promoting a culture of gender equality and ending discrimination; Schools, media, CSOs and the private sector support the promotion of a culture that is supportive of gender equality, diversity, and ending GBV; improved understanding and action by men, including religious and community leaders, in cultural transformation for gender equality; data systems are institutionalized and inform gender studies for stronger knowledge - based action and advocacy.

At the same time, all other sectors are e xpected to contribute to this strategic gender outcome, i.e. there are strategies in the education, health, and economic sectors that address gender norms, attitudes and beliefs that limit women‟s benefit and participation. 100 Overall Strategic Outcomes: Significant progress is achieved in promoting a culture of gender equality and ending discrimination; media, CSOs and the private sector support the creation of an enabling environment for a culture that is supportive of gender equality, diversity, and ending GBV; improved understanding and action by men, including religious and community leaders, in cultural transformation for gender equality ; increased level of gender mainstreaming in government pl anning and programming.
